Coming home is a beautiful thing. It’s a place to unwind, connect and create memories with loved ones. And now more than ever, we’re spending our time at home whether it be working or entertaining. That’s why it’s essential that your space feels inspiring and is a true reflection of your style.
Luckily for you, we’ve uncovered the wonders of versatile wall hooks in transforming the look of your interiors. The best part? It won't cost you the earth – this humble (and stylish) accessory is an affordable way to elevate any space. It’s easy to get creative with wall hooks and below, we explore some simple ways to do so.
Before we put our DIY hats on, let’s understand how to select a wall hook that’s fit for purpose.
Firstly, consider the function of the wall hook. Do you need it to hang heavy items like artwork or bags? Or is it for more of a decorative function to hang dainty pieces like your jewellery? This will determine the material of the wall hook. If you need it to be strong and durable, go for hooks made from metal or hard wood. Or if you’ve got your heart set on a ceramic or rattan hook, then use these for lightweight pieces only.
Next up, consider the style of the room where the wall hook will be placed. If you want it to blend in with its surroundings, look for clean line hooks that match the overall aesthetic of the space. For a more eye-catching look, choose a hook that contrasts with the rest of the room. Nothing says ‘look at me’ more than a playful design (we’re looking at you Octavius Wall Hook).
Now let the fun begin with these creative ideas to incorporate wall hooks into your own home.
Entryways and mudrooms are the gatekeepers of all those ‘things’ that we take as we head out the door (bags, coats and even leashes for our furry friends). Incorporating hooks as a smart storage solution can add both function and style to this space. Install decorative storage hooks at different heights for umbrellas, clothing and hats. This will keep things organised and serve as a handy reminder for family members to put items back in their place (you can thank us later!). We think our ocean inspired
Moby Wall Hook would be perfect as a statement piece in the entry way of a coastal abode.
Bedrooms are a haven for getting ready for the day ahead or unwinding in. An organised oasis from the stresses of life will ensure sweet dreams. A storage idea that doubles as a statement feature is a jewellery organiser. Simply group together several different sizes and styles of hooks on a wall to create a dreamy display of your treasured pieces. It will ensure your necklaces and bracelets remain untangled and are easy to grab when you're in a rush. You can also create a ring holder by screwing a small trinket dish on the hook.
Wall hooks can also be utilised to organise your scarves, belts and other accessories. Our
Alphabet Letter Hooks add a bespoke touch to any room – we love the idea of using initials for each family member or spelling out their name. Not only is this a smart storage solution to keep your wardrobe organised and clutter free, but it can inject some personality into a space.
No home is complete without artwork, a personal statement that should fill you with joy every time you walk by. We especially love styling a nursery or kid’s bedroom with whimsical prints to inject some personality into the space. Our sweet
Bright Side Hook in rattan will look good even if you decide to change up the space when your baby is older. You can also incorporate a wall hook at the back of the door to hang their towel and bathrobe. We can’t go past the chic
Ceramic Alphabet Hooks for a personal touch.
The kitchen is the aesthetic heart of the home and an opportunity to truly blend both form and function. While open shelving is visually pleasing, it can be tricky to keep such an open area tidy. Adding hooks means there is a place for everything and it’s easy to keep the space organised. We recommend trying this simple styling update to add depth to your space (with the bonus of creating additional storage). Simply hang a row of hooks along an empty wall in your kitchen. This will create the perfect place to show off your gorgeous collection of cooking wares and antiques.
